Wildlife & Animals: Does anyone have any good suggestions on how to keep squirrels out of my bird feeders?

I have tried the crushed red pepper in the bird seed, and have tried putting vaseline on the pole that holds the feeders....any other suggestions? I will at times have one or two in the feeders, with 5 or 6 on the ground below...I dont mind them on the ground, but they've broken a couple of feeders already this year for me.... :(

Flooring: Flooring choices

Hey y'all!

Have any of you flooring guys/gals out there ever installed high-quality plywood floors? If so, wondering how they hold up. Here's a pic and here's the link where I read about them. What do you all think?
